When banks get busted for bribes going to s/p and fitch to rate their "Mortgage backed bonds" as AAA that is where I don't feel bad asking for a loan modification or bailing on the loan period.

These shady clowns get away with it but want their bonuses too??? WTF is going on?

Well lets face it . The last 20 yr,s have been one heck of a spending binge . The credit industry has been handing out money like it was made out of paper . Anyone who wanted a house or a car could get one on a signature and a promise. During this orgy of consumerism we all got what we wanted and forwarded the cost to the future . The future now is here and because of the deflating values of most of these purchases many of the note holders want their money . Like a game of musical chairs the music has stopped playing and those holding vast amounts of debt will be left without a seat . It will over a period of time all wash out. Our government is attempting to print enough money to bail out everyone this will only make matters worse ,

Its a terrible lie that the average person has been on some kind of spending binge for the last 20 years, and thus earned a market crash and recession as just desserts. The lie appeals to the same superstition that natural disasters or illnesses occur as a punishment for sins against God. Economic shocks are a natural part of economic cycles - unpleasant reality that needs to be dealt with - not blamed on the other guy - whether or not he has heavy credit card debt, a kid in college, or a vacation home.

We now have our chance in history to prove if we are worthy of being the entitled sons and daughters of those who preserved our freedoms by winning WWII. It is high time we pull in our belts, stop driving huge gas guzzlers, heat half our huge houses, use only the electicity we really need, concentrate our work on building businesses of value not financial mirages, save money instead of borrowing against the future at every level of our society, and repay the debt we have so unwisely piled onto our own children and theirs. If we bequeath to our children a country with plentiful work, energy independence, fine public education, sound infrastructure, tolerance for diversity, strong values and abundant courage, maybe they will refer to us also as the "Greatest Generation". The choice lies with each one of us.
